5 Play the Spectre and Plague Knight DLC expansions for Shovel Knight without completely heal-spamming your way through them

7 Beat the original Final Fantasy VII without being able to use speed-up hotkeys for the combat

8 Beat the main campaigns of the first two Parappa games under the extreme lag handicap of playing them on modern televisions, without liberally exploiting the freestyling mechanics
